A Sensational story.

CHICAGO, Dec. 1st.-Last night
Nina Van Zandt called at the Police
station and demanded possession of
the clothes worn by Spies when he
was hung. Her request was refused
and this morning she hired a lawyer
to begin suit for them. She stated
that the fact that Spies died in them
cut no special figure but as they had
been purchased of Blumenthal &
Cohn, of Carson City, Nevada, she
would fight for them to the bitter
end. Blumenthal & Cohn have
also Just received a fresh invoice of

James G. Blaine is now in Eu-
rope and he will sail Eastward for
home. 1t is said he will arrive in
San Francisco on the Goth of next
June, (nearly the longest day in

California until the Presidential
nominations are made. Blaine's
friends say that he will be nomi-
mated by the Republican National
Convention without any opposition.
Mr.. Blaine's presence IN California
is expected to have an intensely ia
.vorable effect on the Republican
vote of the Pacific Coast. And so
we see that big politics are NOV

THE SIGNAL SERVICE.
IL Lights ON il. Feet Again.

1t Lights on its Feet Again.
| There can be no question that
| the Nevada Signal Service is all il
claims to be. Mr.. Oliver Roberts,
assisted by Mr.. Latta, never allows
a storm to go by or change in the
weather without hosting some kind
OF a flag.
Night before last Mr.. Roberts re-
marked to Mr.. Latta:
81 say, what sort of signal
shall we give 'em tomorrow ?"
"Guess 1t Will be safe to hang out
a warm weather flag; the ice on
Hallock's water pail wasn't very
thick this morning."
"Warm weather signal goes,
them" and in few minutes it was
cut.
About noon yesterday, however,
Roberts happened to go up in the
cupola, and came down on the
run.
81 say, Latta, for Heavens sake
come up here, quick. Here's storm
coming over the mountains. Must
have been over the ridge two hours
ago, and we hayn't got the right
signals out. Git out that storm flag
right away" :
"Storm flags down at Jacobs
getting mended."
"Then go down and borrow one
of the Governors blue flannel shirts.
We can cut the sleeves off and tnrn
it loose"
Il happened that the Governor
had just purchased some blue fan
mel shirts, and the bundle was lying
on the table. Roberts snaked one
in a minute, cut off the sleeves and
hoisted it to the breeze.
The Governor was talking pretty
lively about the missing shirt in the
afternoon, but the Signal Service of
Nevada lit on it's feet as usual
The regular flag was mended all
right by o'clock and delivered.

Doing Good Work.

Nevada is indebted almost solely
to C. w. Friend, of Carson City,
for meteorological observations for
number of years past, and for the
several stations now IN the State.
To him is due the establishment OF
weather indication offices at Carson
City, Winnemucca and Keller.
These stations make six observations
EACH day and three of these obser-
vations are telegraphed to the branch
and head offices. The observations
in this neutrality-suspicious.
taken at 4 o'clock A. M, at II
O'Clock M. and o'clock P. N. Mr..
Friend has been furnishing Carson
City with the weather indications at
his own expense, and has permit
ted the Enterprise, of Virginia, to
take the report as it passes over the
wires there, and is willing to extend
the some courtesy to Reno as he
has done to Virginia, providing ar
rangements can be made to do it.
The Government officials have
received the benefit, not only of Mr..
Friends observations, but the results
of many of his inventions and ex-
periments, which have been adopt
ed without giving him due credit.
There is no other station IN the
country that the reports can be re-
lied upon more closely than those
of Carson City. The zeal of Mr..
Friend, as meteorologist, is such
that in time he will have formulat-
ed for Nevada system of observa-
tons that will reflect the greatest OF
credit upon him and give the people
an unsurpassed weather service

August Muenter, rich Stock
ton lawyer, appears to be a decid-

noted for its thriftiness.. He was
employed by poor widow to de-

ly drew out the necessary papers.
Then he went to the other side and
engaged himself to antagonize his
own client. When confronted with
the complaint and answer, both in
his own hand writing, the scoundrel
is reported to have "wilted." The
wonder is that man with such
brazen audacity should think it
worth while to manifest any of the
symptoms of remorse common to
honest men. One would suppose, !,
under the circumstances, that the
Court before whom the shameful
revelation was made would have
ordered Muenter into Jail for con-
tempt, but it did nothing of the
kind. The Stockton papers express
the belief that the legal pirate may
be disbarred. !,

as re ason for inaction, and such
reason would have unanswerable
force, did the general course of the
Government furnish evidence of its
validity. This, however, is not the
case. Large salaries are being paid
sinecurists. A Commission has been
sent down TO Samoa and is now main
tanned there, which will, in all prob
ability, have the effect of exciting
the New Zealand people to q pitch
that will ultimately result in humili-
alton to Hawaii. A vessel has been
purchased and is being fitted up rs
warship, at considerable cost, for
which intelligent people can see no
necessity whatever. For these and
other purposes Of similar inutility,
money can be found. What then
becomes of the plea, that the streets
in the burnt district remain as they
were because there is no money to
improve them? Money for what is,
at most, only ornamental, and nc
money for the necessary and useful !
That is strange, very strange!

house officials, as usual, waiting for
them, or rather, their baggage.
Contrary TO the preconceived no.
tions, of some, the examination of
personal baggage was close and
thorough. Those who had "been
there before" had anticipated some-
thing of the kind and were detained
but few minutes and went off re-
joicing. But in one or two cases
there was the unavoidable delay
consequent upon the finding 10y the
custom house officer of "dutiable
goods" amongst the clothing. Not
that there was anything fished out
from amongst stockings, shirts or
dresses, that was evidently placed
there to escape the customs; but
that purchases had been made of
"unconsidered trifles" not on the
"free" list. There was no seizure
made, but there was II good deal of
grumbling. Amongst those who
were thus subjected TO vexatious
delays was lady passenger from
the islands who, after a very plea
SAINT visit on Oahu, Maui and Ha-
waii was returning to her home.
When her baggage was examined
the officer came across number of
packages which the lady had cove
nanted to take to various persons in
the United States as little presents
from people living on the islands.
There were pretty little trifles made
of zephyr worsted, silk ribbons,
plushes, etc., all dutiable. There
were Chinese goods, (tea caddies,
boxes, etc., pretty little things
worth perhaps two bits or dollar
in Honolulu, all dutiable. There
were mysterious packages which on
being torn open proved to contain
South Sea Island curios, (mere tri-
fles, costing little or nothing), all
dutiable here. The official whose
business it was to examine this lot
of trulnpery was very patient, and
fully appreciated the awkward posi-
ton of the lady in whose baggage
he found them. He knew (from
| previous experience probably that
she was the innocent victim of those
worthy people in Honolulu who,
having friends to whom they would
like to send little souvenirs if they
can do so cheaply, persuade depart
ing acquaintances to "Just take
charge of this little package please,
and send il TO So and So" Who
sweetly smile and say: "Oh! Now
you are going to (Halifax perhaps)
please put this little box in your
trunk and deliver it. to my cousin,
sister, or other relation"
At any rate, after consulting with
other officials, the very gentlemanly
examiner "passed" the baggage,
and after an hours detention the
lady was able to leave the wharf.
The whole scene suggested the
following ''moral." Those who send
gifts to their friends in foreign
country should remember that
manufactures of silk, wool, satin,
plush, etc., are dutiable." Those
who take charge of such articles
should be prepared to pay that duty
or lose the goods. c.
